選擇填空型閱讀理解解題指導

王小英

閱讀理解能力是一項重要的語言技能，主要是培養學生用英語思維的能力及用英語獲取信息、處理信息的能力。閱讀理解要求我們既要具備一定的詞匯量和語法知識，較高的語言經驗積累及良好的語言感覺，又要具備一定的文化背景知識和相關的閱讀技能。中考閱讀材料在題材和體裁的選取上，更加重視具有鮮明時代特征、實用性強的語言材料，如報刊文章、使用說明書、招貼告示、廣告及各類圖表等。閱讀重在考查學生對篇章的整體理解和把握。選擇型閱讀理解的解題方法和步驟如下：

1． 細讀題干，心中有數。

細讀題干，首先要掌握問題的類型，分清是客觀信息題還是主觀判斷題。客觀信息題可以從文章中直接找到答案；而主觀判斷題考查的是對文章的感情基調，作者未陳述的觀點以及貫穿全文的中心主旨的理解等，這類題必須經過對作者的態度、意圖以及對整篇文章進行深一層次的推理等。其次，了解試題題干以及各個選項所包含的信息，然后有針對性地對文章進行掃讀，對有關信息進行快速定位，再將相關信息進行整合、甄別、分析、對比，有根有據地排除干擾項，選出正確答案。此法加強了閱讀的針對性，提高了做題的準確率，節省了寶貴的時間。特別適用于對圖形表格類題材的理解。

2． 速讀全文，了解大意知主題。

抓主題句這是快速掌握文章大意的主要方法。主題句一般出現在文章的開頭和結尾。用歸納法撰寫的文章，此時主題句就是文章的最后一句。通常用演繹法撰寫的文章，大都遵循從一般到個別的寫作程序，即從概述開始，隨之輔以細說。這時，主題句就是文章的第一句。當然也有些文章沒有主題句，需要讀者自己去歸納。主題句往往對全文起提示、啟迪、概括、歸納之作用，主旨大意題、歸納概括題、中心思想題往往直接可以從主題句中找到答案。

3． 詳讀細節，理順思路與文章脈絡。

記敘文多以人物為中心，以時間或空間為線索，按事件的發生、發展、結局展開故事；論述體則包含論點、論據、結論三大要素，通過解釋、舉例來闡述觀點。你可根據文章的特點，詳讀細節，以動詞、時間、地點、事件、因果等為線索，找出關鍵詞語，運用“畫圖列表法”，勾畫出一幅完整清晰的文章主題和細節的認知圖。

4． 邏輯推理，做好深層理解題。

在實際閱讀中，有時作者并未把意圖說出來，閱讀者要根據字面意思，通過語篇邏輯關系，研究細節的暗示，推敲作者的態度，理解文章的寓意。這就是通常所說的深層理解。深層理解是一種創作性的思維活動。它必須忠實于原文，要以文章提供的事實和線索為依據，立足已知推斷未知，不能憑空想象，隨意揣測；它要求讀者對文字的表面信息進行分析、挖掘和邏輯推理，不能就事論事，以偏概全。只有吃透文字的字面意思，推理才有前提和基礎。

5． 認真復查，避免失誤。

這是最后一步，也是最重要的一步。我們在確定答案后，不能掉以輕心。在閱讀和答題時，我們的大腦里已輸入了不少信息，這時很有必要把所有的信息歸納整理一遍后再讀一遍短文，認真檢查答案，利用瀏覽和查閱等方法檢查所選答案是否正確，是否符合邏輯，是否掉進設計者的“陷阱”中。發現錯誤，及時改正，力求萬無一失。

請同學們按以上方法做一做下面的短文。

Passage 1 故事類 (2008年鹽城市)

The famous scientist and thinker, Charles Darwin, was born on February 12, 1809. As a boy, Charles liked to go for walks in the fields and forests.
